A new strain of Covid-19?. A new lockdown??.

Coronavirus. It killed millions. And it's still around!, So keep sanatizing and social distancing. I understand you are all sick and tired of hearing this, however we must follow protocol!. Save lives!!. Protect yourself and loved ones!!. Wear a mask!.

In late February my primary school went on our one week mid term, not because of Covid, but it got extended immensely due to the virus. We stayed on lockdown until late August, when I went to secondary school under strict restrictions. And when a wave of Covid-19 came before Halloween midterm ( up to 1000  new cases a DAY! ), another lockdown was issued. Schools and workplaces remained open however. 

Then we just kept fazing into level 5, level 3,2...e.t.c, for a long duration. I live in Ireland and we are doing these levels, with each level more strict, kinda like the idea of the richer scale. 

Now, with cases rising yet again, there has been hushed talk of another lockdown. We are already on  our Christmas holidays for 2020, but may be in another sinister lockdown, like our six-month shutdown. 

My mother and I were flicking through her Facebook feed the other day, and noticed a video of a guy informing people of a new strain of Covid-19. It was additionally on the RTE news!. This new strain spreads vastly, and immensely in speed rates. 

So will we be in another lockdown?. We'll soon see!.
